Knowing Performance and Safety Guidelines

Turning Off your Phone in
Dangerous Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn off your
phone when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs
indicating that two-way radios should be turned off.
Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to
set off explosives.

Turn off your phone when you’re in any area that has a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your
phone or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks could
cause an explosion or a fire resulting in bodily injury or
even death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly
marked. They include:

Fueling areas such as gas stations

Below deck on boats

Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities

Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles
such as grain, dust or metal powders

Any other area where you would normally be advised to
turn off your vehicle engine

Restricting Children’s Access to your Phone

Your Sprint PCS Phone is not a toy. Children should not be
allowed to play with it because they could hurt themselves
and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase
your phone bill.

Tip:

Never transport or store

flammable gas, liquid or

explosives in the

compartment of your

vehicle that contains

your phone or

accessories.
